We have lots of questions and we also have lots of answers when it comes to the Astros this week.
When one goes on vacation, it is expected things will happen in sports, but holy moly, did things ever change when this writer decided to take a trip"off the grid" last week.
There are few downsides to the extra padding in the rotation, particularly when it comes in the form of a horse like Verlander. This added to the fact that Valdez seems to be rounding back into shape giving the team two legit aces at the top of the rotation. Hopefully, it can help the Astros get to the finish line healthy and without significant dead arm issues from some of their younger players.
Now, the team adds a much desired left handed bat in Singleton, a guy who really can only play first and DH. Unless Baker decides to give more split time to Diaz behind the dish, it seems likely he is only going to lose opportunities at the plate. It's important to note that EVERYONE believes Diaz is the catcher of the Astros future, just not the present, mainly because Maldonado is considered one of the best managers of pitchers in the game.
One would think, but that hasn't been the case. Mired in a 2-22 slump, Baker recently gave him an unscheduled day off, but it didn't really appear to help. The big name free agent acquisition this offseason is suffering through one of the worst years of his career. Despite a very good June, Abreu continues to struggle. His batting average is nearly 30 points lower than his worst year, slugging nearly 100 points lower and his OPS is just .641 with his worst season previously being .820.
